Description
The Department of Defense continues to be the largest single acquirer and user of energy and energy systems and technologies in the world. While most continue to be petroleum and petroleum-based products, there is also a steadily growing market for alternative energies. In addition, DoD and the Services are investing heavily in new technologies to improve energy efficiency and management, whether at fixed installations or in the deployed, mobile environment. This outstanding symposium brings together the government and industry experts who are paving the way for the next-generation of defense energy capabilities. They will examine current and future DoD and Service energy strategies and roadmaps, status and forecast for major energy initiatives, and how to develop, finance and manage defense-industry energy partnerships.
